January is the perfect month to scope out an artist you’ve never seen or a venue you’ve never visited! Local restaurants, bars, and breweries are brimming with talented live acts in a variety of genres. There’s something for everybody if you’re willing to go out and find it!
All live music listings in no particular order.
This week’s cover photo: Multi-talented singer-songwriter, Gracie Jane Sinclair hits the hat-trick this weekend with gigs Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Find her playing solo at the recently-opened Iron Hart Brewing in Dalton on Friday night. Then, she comes to Creekside Inn in Tunkahnnock on Saturday night to put on a show with her trio! Finally, Gracie Jane caps off the weekend at Snapper’s Bar & Grill on Sunday afternoon in Lake Winola.
